Its not the most flash website in the world but it does work. Tell your six friends to go to the above link then
- Click on 'Get OpenOffice.org'
- Click on 'Download OpenOffice.org'

And the the latest Windows version of OOo will download. What is difficult about that?


I decided to test out today what Gary (OP) had said. I am using a Mac PPC. After clicking on Download OpenOffice.org I was taken to a page saying "you are about to download ..." and then I was switched to a page that says:


    Download Chooser

The download you have chosen is not available.
Please use the BACK button to return to the erroneous page or go to Download Central <http://download.openoffice.org/>.

For the adventurous there is a form <http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/download-form.php> provided with no guarantee that any of the listed versions is available.


If I were an average software user just wanting to download and install this suite, I would look elsewhere and probably never come back. Especially given that last sentence!!
